Rhuva's Counter-Scry
(Divination)

Range:  0
Components:  V, S, M
Duration:  8 hours
Casting Time:  4
Area of Effect:  20-yard radius sphere
Saving Throw:  Special

The wizard will automatically detect any scrying attempt in the area of effect. The scryer must make a saving throw versus spell to realise that the scrying is being tampered with. If he does not immediately terminate the scrying, the caster of the counter-scry gets a clear image of the spy and a general location. He can cast any ranged spells through the link at the scryer, who receives all normal saving throws. The caster of the counter-scry can also simply jolt the scryer, causing the connection to be terminated. The detection of a scrying attempt will interrupt spell-casting. It is suggested that detect scrying be made a 2nd-level spell, with a more limited duration and vaguer description of the scryer. The material component is a small silver mirror.
